Tenuta la Bandita is a hidden oasis of nature. Within its 35 acres wild orchids flourish, olive trees glisten on the hillsides; their silvery green leaves wave in the gentle breezes and change color with the light of day yielding precious fruits that come Autumn will produce delicious seasonally pressed olive oil. Wildlife surrounds this country estate; here can be found deer, the prized Cinghiale (wild boar) and the elusive porcupine all who live peacefully in its woodland countryside. In the pastoral greens of the property, goats can be seen grazing alongside two donkeys, the properties mascots. Mornings, with the dawn of each day you will hear a Leghorn rooster crow in the distance. A pond on the land hosts duck, geese and swan, all who help create a harmonious bucolic atmosphere.
